A popular means of reducing size and cost for any embedded design is to use a communication bus with fewer I/O pins. Moving from a parallel bus to a serial bus provides significant size and cost ...

Serial buses dot the landscape of embedded design. From displays to storage to peripherals, serial interfaces make communications possible. Many serial communication interfaces compete for use in ...

We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

The SPI is an interface bus that is used to send data between microcontrollers, and/or other peripherals like sensors, flash and EEPROM memory, LCDs, SD Cards, Camera Lenses and many more. Being able ...

Electronics is everywhere, especially these days. Many times, as frequent users, we do not even notice a “paradigm change” in the things we use on regular basis. We use a fridge, but we do not care ...

USB is the de facto interconnection standard for low- to mid-range PC peripherals. The latest version, USB 2.0 moves USB from a 12-Mb/s peak bandwidth to a 480-Mb/s peak. USB 2.0 allows engineers to ...

Yokogawa has added CXPI serial bus analysis to the range of options available on the company’s DLM2000 and DLM4000 Series mixed signal oscilloscopes. CXPI – Clock Extension Peripheral Interface – is ...

We use the Bus Pirate to interface a new chip without writing code or designing a PCB. Based on your feedback, and our experience using the original Bus Pirate to demonstrate various parts, we updated ...
